Microscopic colitis, a cause of chronic diarrhea, is diagnosed via histopathology. This study found typical features and a satisfactory treatment response in four female patients with lymphocytic colitis and collagenous colitis.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Microscopic colitis presents diagnostic challenges in chronic diarrhea cases.
  • Clinical, chemical, and macroscopic examinations are often inconclusive.

Purpose:

  • To detail the clinical, biochemical, colonoscopic, and histologic characteristics.
  • To evaluate treatment response in four patients with microscopic colitis.

Summary:

  • Four female patients with chronic watery diarrhea underwent evaluation.
  • Diagnoses included lymphocytic colitis (2) and collagenous colitis (2).
  • Diagnosis relied on histopathology despite normal endoscopic and biochemical findings.

Impact:

  • Histopathology is crucial for diagnosing microscopic colitis.
